Salesforce doubles down on the “Agentic Enterprise”

Salesforce Spring ’26 release operationalizes Agentforce across sales and service
Salesforce’s Spring ’26 Release pushes its Agentforce stack deeper into production with autonomous agents handling two‑way email responses, always‑on prospecting, agentic order routing, and data‑pipeline orchestration inside Data 360. The launch explicitly positions the “Agentic Enterprise” as the target state where human reps and AI agents co‑own workflows across sales, service, and operations, which will pressure competitors and customers alike to formalize agent orchestration, governance, and cross‑system integration strategies.

Physical-world agent swarms move onto devices

Thundercomm brings on-device AI agents to smart homes, cameras, and robots
Thundercomm announced an AIOS‑based platform that deploys on‑device AI agents into smart homes, action cameras, and robotics, enabling a persistent 24/7 assistant that can interpret multi‑modal context and act without cloud round‑trips. By pushing agents closer to sensors and actuators, this approach reduces latency and connectivity risk, and foreshadows an ecosystem where edge devices run their own specialized agents that coordinate with cloud‑level orchestrators in retail, home automation, and industrial settings.

Enterprise-grade agentic AI hits compliance

e& and IBM unveil enterprise-grade agentic AI for governance and compliance
A new collaboration between e& and IBM embeds agentic AI directly into e&’s policy, risk, and compliance stack, moving beyond chatbots to action-oriented agents governed via watsonx Orchestrate and OpenPages. The joint proof of concept was delivered in eight weeks and is positioned as a reference architecture for trusted, explainable, and regulated AI agents operating at enterprise scale, signaling that agentic systems are now entering mission‑critical, regulated workflows rather than staying in low‑risk pilots.

Dev tools add multi-agent “factories” for legacy stacks

Profound Logic’s CoderFlow coordinates multiple AI agents for IBM i development
Profound Logic introduced CoderFlow, an AI‑powered development environment that coordinates multiple AI agents, each running in its own containerized environment, to build and modernize IBM i applications. The isolation model gives individual agents autonomy while limiting blast radius if they fail, hinting at a design pattern where legacy enterprise stacks adopt multi‑agent “software factories” with strong sandboxing and policy controls rather than a single, monolithic coding assistant.

AI agents become a security problem — and product category

Social Links launches AI Agent Security platform to fight AI-powered fraud
Social Links announced “AI Defender,” a dedicated AI Agent Security platform launched at CES 2026 to counter AI‑driven fraud, scams, deepfake abuse, and disinformation before they reach end users. The system operationalizes a decade of OSINT and digital risk work into defensive AI agents, framing “only AI can stop AI agents on the dark side” and underscoring that the agent economy is already forcing CISOs to budget for agent‑vs‑agent security layers.
